Favoriting Explorers Room with Flash Strap: Playlist from July 28, 2022 Favoriting

Flash Strap's avatar View Flash Strap's profile Favoriting

This is where all of culture and all of time are collapsed into one seductive portal and viewed through the panoramic lens of the exotic. Come and embark on an armchair-travel virtual-voyage to the heart of timeless darkness and beyond; embrace the numinous monolith of the exotic immensity. Let us find that place where hybridization meets its destiny as pure fantasy. Let us become observers observing those others who are ourselves. You wear your mask and I'll wear mine.

I am guessing 77-78 for lambs bread collieman, dubwise might be a reissue
Avatar 8:04pm
Flash Strap:

@chresti: it is, yeah. the tracks on it were originally released '77&'78 I think, but on different 45s (the generic "dub wise" makes it a little hard to nail down in this case, at least with my resources)

downright hilarious performance from Killer Miller here. sheer delight

Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 9:28pm
Revolution Rabbit Nov63:

A quick (therefore possibly underinformed) take is it's funkier & a little less dense than SoftMachine in the 1960s often was?
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 9:29pm
Revolution Rabbit Nov63:

...with clearer available 70s Production also?...

Avatar 9:29pm
Flash Strap:

but it is unforgettable, so very little credit is due me
Avatar 9:31pm
Flash Strap:

It's definitely less dense than the first two, i'd say denser AND funkier than Third. and much less jazz-noodled up than most of the rest of Machine in this era, which is not to knock the rest
